ABSTRACT
Objective To observe recycle homorheology index of two autologous blood recover machines in orthopedic operation , including maximum deformation index (DImax) ,aggregation index(AImax) ,osmotic fragility ,hematocrit(Hct) ,hemoglobin(Hb) , blood electrolytes and pH value ,the changes of in vivo Hct ,Hb ,blood electrolyte and pH value after the autotransfusion to provide references for rational clinical use of cell salvage .Methods Seventy‐six patients were randomly divided into group A (CATS) and group B (Cell Saver) ,38 cases in each group .Autologous test of DImax ,AImax ,osmotic fragility ,Hct ,Hb ,blood electrolytes ,pH value and Hct ,Hb ,osmotic fragility ,pH value of patients before and after autotransfusion ,24 h after operation ,used to determine the in vivo salvaged were measured .Results DImax of group A were lower than that of group B with no difference(P0 .05) ,but was lower than the reference value .RBC osmotic fragility curve shifted to the right in group A ,each index was significantly lower than its reference value(P0 .05) .The in vivo Hct of both groups after autotransfusion were significantly higher than before(P<0 .05) .Conclusion The hemorheology index and quality of salvaged blood acquired from these two cell salvage systems in orthopae‐dic operation have no obvious differences .The function of these two kinds of cell salvage systems is safer and reliable .
ABSTRACT
We enrolled 60 patients with American Association of Anesthesiologists grade Ⅰ - Ⅱ undergoing unilateral total knee arthroplasty. All patients received combined epidural and spinal anesthesia,and a nerve stimulator was used to guide placement of a femoral nerve catheter. Patients were divided into three groups according to the catheter location on X-ray : psoas muscle group ( n = 18 ), iliacus muscle group (n = 19) and local group (n =23). Visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores were recorded at rest and with movement at 4, 24 and 48 h postoperatively and sensory blockade of the femoral, obturator and lateral femoral cutaneous nerves was recorded at 24 h.There were no significant differences in femoral nerve blockade among the three groups. Obturator nerve blockade was significantly better in the psoas muscle group than in the iliacus muscle and local groups, and was also better in the local group than in the iliacus muscle group. There was no significant difference in lateral femoral cutaneous nerve blockade between the psoas muscle and iliacus muscle groups, but there was better blockade in both these groups than in the local group. At 4 h postoperatively, VAS pain scores at rest were significantly lower in the psoas muscle group than in the iliacus muscle and local groups, but there were no significant differences in VAS pain scores with movement among the three groups. At 24 and 48 h postoperatively, VAS scores at rest and with movement were significantly lower in the psoas muscle group than in the iliacus muscle and local groups.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the blood-saving efficacy of acute hypervolemic hemodilution (AHH)-hemostatics-intraoperative blood salvage (IOBS) in patients undergoing orthopedic surgery. Methods One hundred and twenty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients of both sexes, aged 18-64 yr, scheduled for elective orthopedic surgery under general anesthesia with an expected blood loss of 800 ml or more, were randomly divided into 4 groups ( n = 30 each) : AHH + IOBS + hemostatics group; IOBS + hemostatics group; AHH + IOBS group; AHH + bemostatics group. AHH was induced with 6% hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 15 ml/kg infused iv at a rate of 40 ml/min immediately after tracheal intubation until the time of immediately before skin incision, IOBS was performed immediately before skin incision. Intravenous hemocoagulase 2 kU and im hemocoagulase 1 kU were injected 10 min before skin incision. The total volume of fluid intake and output, HR, MAP and CVP were recorded during the operation. Vein blood samples were taken for determination of Hb, Hct, platelet counts (Plt), prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), and fibrinogen concentration (Fib) .Results CVP was significantly lower in IOBS+ hemostatics group than in AHH + IOBS + hemestaties group ( P < 0.05), while no significant difference in CVP was found between AHH + IOBS and AHH + IOBS + hemostatics group and between AHH + hemostatics and AHH +IOBS + hemostaties group (P > 0.05). The volume of blood loss was significantly higher in AHH + IOBS group, and the allogenic blood transfusion volume was significantly higher, while the percentage of the patients without allogeneie blood transfusion and without FFP transfusion lower in AHH + hemostatics group than in AHH + IOBS + hemostatics group ( P < 0.05 or 0.01 ), but there were no significant differences in the above parameters between IOBS + hemostatics group and AHH + IOBS + hemostatics group ( P > 0.05). Hb, Hct, Plt and Fib were significantly higher in IOBS + hemostatics group than in AHH + IOBS + hemostafics group( P < 0.05), but there were no significant differences in the above parameters between AHH + IOBS and AHH +IOBS + hemostatics group and between AHH + hemostatics and AHH + IOBS + hemestatlcs group (P > 0.05 ). Conclusion The blood-saving efficacy of AHH-bemostatics-IOBS is good in patients undergoing orthopedic surgery and it is a safe technique.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of hemocoagulase in preventing and treating perioperative hemorrhage in patients undergoing total hip replacement and study its effects on perioperative blood coagulation function so as to provide objective basis for better clinical usage of hemocoagulase. Methods Eighty ASA Ⅰ Ⅱ patients undergoing total hip replacement under general anesthesia were randomly and equally divided into two groups, ie, Group Ⅰ (control group) that received normal saline for 4 ml iv and normal saline for 2 ml im 10 minutes preoperatively; GroupⅡ(hemocoagulase group) that received hemocoagulase for 2 kU iv and Hemocoagulase for 1 kU im 10 minutes preoperatively. The perioperative and postoperative bleeding volume was measured respectively; meanwhile, the indices of blood coagulation function were measured during operation, immediately, one and five days after operation. Results (1) The perioperative and postoperative bleeding volume in GroupⅡ was significantly less than that in Group Ⅰ ( P
